Pseudo-Shortlog of commits:

Both are now dropped, thanks. I'll push out a -rc2 with that changed.


Can you push that update into the git repository ?
v5.1.17-137-gde182b90f76d still has the problem.

Odd, I thought I did this. Pushed out again just to be sure.

Problem is still seen in -rc2.

Also:

Building powerpc:ppc6xx_defconfig ... failed

drivers/crypto/talitos.c: In function âget_request_hdrâ:
include/linux/kernel.h:979:51: error:
dereferencing pointer to incomplete type âstruct talitos_edescâ

Seen with both v4.19.58-92-gd66f8e7 and v5.1.17-137-gde182b90f76d.

This problem is caused by "crypto: talitos - fix hash on SEC1.", which will
need a proper backport - struct talitos_edesc is declared later in the
source file.

Ick, let me go drop this one after breakfast...


Turns out this affects all three branches (v4.19. v5.1, and v5.2).
